ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Remote Control For Xbox holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Remote Control For Xbox has 378 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of X Gamepad Tester's written reviews are positive against 25% of Remote Control For Xbox's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

X Gamepad Tester ships an update every 58 months, Remote Control For Xbox every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
